Jim McVean of The Boys’ Brigade Glasgow Battalion, said: “With the increased numbers of Queen’s Badge recipients this year, it shows the continued relevance of The Boys’ Brigade to young people of today. Through two years of working towards the award, these young men have made a tremendous positive impact on their local communities.”

Queen’s Badge recipients have to achieve a number of requirements - including taking on leadership roles and working in the community.
